Hmm :scratch:. The quote button seems to have disappeared altogether...just to be left by the multi-quote. Is this the new version?

The "quote" button also turns green after you click on it.

If Erwin is reading this, I'm not to sure this is an improvement over the regular quote function, plus the mutli-quote function. I'll need to experiment before I make a decision.

I liked the option of being able to quote someone right from their post rather than having to go up and hit "Post Reply" even when I am not quoting multiple posts. I think that translates to me preferring how it was when "quote" and """ were two separate buttons. :)

Still, either way, neat feature.

I was wondering the same thing when I tried to use the "quote" button and it wouldn't direct me to a "reply" window with the quote.

I really liked it when we could tag all the posts we wanted to quote and then click on the "quote" button when we were done.

I'm not seeing the multi-quote buttons today.Where'd they go?
I also could not get the quote button to work on my last post.

Okay, I clicked two and only the last one clicked showed up.

Plus, the only way that I could see the quoted post was to click reply and then go to advanced.

Frankly I liked it the way it was earlier this week. This feature seems to be buggy.
When I click only one poster, I get no response whatsover. At first I thought the system crashed.
When I click two quotes then I get one quote in the response, but only the most recent.

This time I clicked three posters - yet only the last post shows.

But the quote buttons once clicked remain green (quote -) even after refreshing.

The only way to get the quote buttons to return to normal (quote +) is to reclick them.

What happened to the next poster's post?

It seemed to disappear, yet I did not notice any obvious rule infractions.

Are we having more system errors?

I clicked your last posts and then clicked "post reply" and they are showing up now. Maybe there is a bug or something.

Same here...I see the little page with the quotes...but not the larger button like the reply and report button...also...the quote feature isn't working right now.
Just testing.

posting blind without seeing any quotes.

There is nothing in this reply box to make comments on.

Again, only the last clicked item is displayed.

I am using mozilla-firefox.
Worked for me.

Don't hit the "Reply" next to the quote. You need to hit the "Post Reply" located above the "Quick Reply" message box.
